The process of converting an analog map into structured digitized information requires several different operations, which are all time-consuming when performed manually. Strictly automatic processing is not always a possible solution, and an interactive approach can then be an alternative. The paper describes a tool for map conversion, focusing on the functionality for extraction of line structures. An interactive approach is used as it gives the user an opportunity to survey the process, and utilize human knowledge. The methods are based on contour following, extracting centre points needed for accurate vector representation of the line during tracing.
